We know a lot of you will think this post is just stupid, but consider it an appetizer for the true awards season, when President Trump and the GOP will be bashed at the Oscars, the Golden Globes, the People’s Choice Awards, etc.

Earlier this week was the 2018 Game Awards, recognizing excellence in video gaming (or esports if you like to call it that). Esports player of the year went to SonicFox, who decided to end his acceptance speech by saying, “I’m gay, black, a furry — pretty much everything a Republican hates — and the best esports player of the year, I guess.”

Dang … even the video game community is using its awards ceremonies to trash-talk Republicans, most of whom probably weren’t aware there was even such an awards ceremony or that a young gay black man who dresses as a blue fox represents everything they hate.

In case your feelings are hurt in retrospect, McLean tweeted after the awards that he doesn’t really hate Republicans … it’s just that he’d be conflicted if he had the Infinity Gauntlet from “Avengers: Infinity War” and could wish them out of existence with a snap of his fingers.

Now I don’t REAAALLY hate republicans, that’s a strong word! But if I had the Thanos glove I mean.. wyd???

I see a lot of people congratulating you for basically saying you would kill every republican. But I’m here on the republican be half. We don’t hate you for being gay black or a furry. Do you and don’t spread hate and shit like this dude.

As someone who is left leaving I'd say generalizing an entire political party based on the actions of a vocal few is kinda dangerous, not all Republicans voted for Trump and they don't have to agree with every other member of the party.

This is inappropriate. C'mon, man. You go around reminding the country that you are a member of 3 oppressed communities who persevered through that hatred to rise up and become an icon of gaming. Now you're using your fame to generalize and oppress others.
